FUDU and I are heading down to the game Sunday. Will get walk up tickets. Meeting for a beer somewhere around 11:45. Would love to meet up with some of you guys if anyone can make it. e0y is going to try to see if there is a reasonable flight that would get him here on time.

We'll probably head to Harry Buffalo/Paninis/Winking Lizard or something.

If only I wasn't driving all over Central Ohio Saturday for soccer.

Sunday is my anniversary and I'll be spending that in the Columbus Convention Center watching 15 yr old's state JO Volleyball tourney. I cannot begin to tell you what 500 bouncing volleyballs in a convention center sounds like. It's excruciating and after a couple hours your head is humming and you just want to curl up in the fetal position and cry somewhere in slince.

And that doesn't take into account the 800 15-yr old girls screaming like 15 yr old girls do.

And I'd still willingly do that than meet Mo and FUDU for the Tribe game.

FUDU recognized the sharp pains plaguing his stomach. He knew he had moved past pure hunger and was now suffering from early stage starvation. Three hours was just too long to go without a Chipotle Burrito. Hell, he rarely went more than an hour and a half without having one of the Mexican's he kept chained up in his basement make him up a double meat classic chicken burrito (with hot sauce).

The combination of shooting pains and the dizziness had turned the already daunting marathon crowd into a seemingly immeasurable army.

mother: "I'm scared FUDU"

FUDU: "it'll be okay my dainty dentist, just squeeze my hand tighter when you get scared."

mother holds FUDU's hand as tight as possible and stares deeply into the eyes of his white supremacist lover, knowing he'll keep him safe at all costs.

I just hope they find the happiness that each of them deserves. It's not my business what they do to get it.

Your daughters team qualified for JOs? Pretty sweet actually. Makes watching all of the other estrogen laden events worthwhile.

After 3 cities, (San Antonio, Dallas, and Houston), countless lost weekends, hundreds of sets and matches, and following brackets via AES with designations like R1CZ3Z5, all we got was not quite able to qualify. So congrats.

Thanks.

They finished 3rd in the state this weekend. Actually tri-state area (Ohio, PA and WV). And if I can add that they only have 7 girls on their roster and that none of them are 5'10 or above it was a complete shock that they won their net and a match in medal play to finish 3rd.

If you're around it enough you know how big some of these girls are (many/most are taller than I am at 15 yrs old) and how tough it is to have no subs (other than girl who changes out with libero).

Semi-finals were house money and they got beat by eventual state champs. But it was something else this weekend. 60 courts going at once, the whistles, the pounding of volleyballs, the shrieks of 15 yr olds.... holy shit. My head still hurts.

Damn right thats' how it went. Good time. Good game, if a little boring, but I sure as shit ain't going to complain about jumping on King Felix for 5 runs in the first two innings. Although, maybe we should have expected it because, as PUP has explained, that guy just doesn't know how to win.
